International Bolting Standards
International Bolting Standards
(OP)
Does anyone know how to cross reference American bolts to International Bolts? Is there a chart for this? Example:
USA
AISI/SAE
304
Germany
DIN/W.-Nr
X5CrNi 18 9/1.4301
What about the UK, France, Spain, Sweden, and Japan? What standards do they use? If I needed a 304 SS bolt, what would they call it in other countries?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

RE: International Bolting Standards
The best thing to do is to use ISO standards, since they are used by all of the countries you mentioned. For your example (304), you could refer to Grade 2 in ISO 3506-1 Mechanical properties of corrosion-resistant stainless-steel fasteners -- Part 1: Bolts, screws and studs.
